HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
ESSENTIAL INFORMATION
Each time directions are given in the instructions (left/right or forward/backwards), these must be intended as referred to the
point of view of an occupant in the driver's seat. Special cases not complying with this rule will be properly specified in the text.
The figures in the Owner Handbook are provided by way of example only: this might imply that some details of the image do
not correspond to the actual arrangement of your vehicle. In addition, the Handbook has been conceived considering vehicles
with steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore possible that on vehicles with steering wheel on the right side, the position of
some controls or elements is not exactly mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information needed you can consult the index at the end of this Owner Handbook.
Chapters can be rapidly identified by graphic tabs, at the side of each odd page. A key showing the order of the chapter and
the corresponding tab symbols appears on another page.
SYMBOLS
While reading this Owner Handbook you will find a series ofWARNINGSto prevent procedures that could damage your
vehicle.
There are alsoPRECAUTIONSthat must be carefully followed to prevent incorrect use of the components of the vehicle,
which could cause accidents or injuries.
Therefore, allWARNINGSandPRECAUTIONSmust always be carefully followed.

IGNITION SWITCH
PUSH BUTTON START
POSITIONS
The system operates only when the key
is within operational range.
Each time the push button start fig. 3 is
pressed, the ignition switches in the
order of OFF, ACC, and ON. Pressing
the push button start again from ON
switches the ignition off.
Note
The engine starts by pressing the
push button start while depressing the
clutch pedal (manual transmission) or
the brake pedal (automatic
transmission). To switch the ignition
position, press the push button start
without depressing the pedal.
Do not leave the ignition switched
ON while the engine is not running.Doing so could result in the battery
going dead. If the ignition is left in ACC
(for automatic transmission, the selector
lever is in the P position, and the
ignition is in ACC), the ignition switches
off automatically after about
25 minutes.
OFF

The power supply to electrical devices
turns off and the push button start
indicator light (amber) also turns off. In
this position the steering wheel is
locked.

If the push button start indicator light
(green) is flashing and the beep sound
is heard, this indicates that the steering
wheel is not unlocked. To unlock the
steering wheel, press the push button
start while moving the steering wheel
left and right.
ACC (Accessory)
Some electrical accessories will operate
and the indicator light (amber)
illuminates. In this position the steering
wheel is unlocked. The keyless entry
system does not function while the
push button start has been pressed to
ACC, and the doors will not lock/unlock
even if they have been locked manually.ON
This is the normal running position after
the engine is started. The indicator light
(amber) turns off (the indicator light
amber illuminates when the ignition is
switched ON and the engine is not
running).

STEERING WHEEL
STEERING WHEEL
ADJUSTMENT
35) 36) 37)
To change the angle of the steering
wheel:
stop the vehicle, and then pull down
the lock release lever 1 under the
steering column fig. 12;
tilt the steering wheel to the desired
positions, then push the lever up to lock
the column;
attempt to push the steering wheel
up and down to make sure it's locked
before driving.
WARNING
35)Any adjustment of the steering wheel
position must be carried out only with the
vehicle stationary and the engine turned
off. Adjusting the steering wheel while the
vehicle is moving is dangerous. Moving it
can very easily cause the driver to abruptly
turn to the left or right. This can lead to loss
of control or an accident.
36)It is absolutely forbidden to carry out
any aftermarket operation involving steering
system or steering column modifications
(e.g. installation of antitheft device) that
could adversely affect performance and
safety, invalidate the warranty and also
result in the vehicle not meeting
type-approval requirements.
37)Before exiting the vehicle, ALWAYS
engage the parking brake, steer the
wheels, engage the first gear if uphill and
the reverse if downhill. If the vehicle is
parked on a steep slope, chock the wheels
with wedges or stones. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock all the doors by
pressing the button on the key.
MIRRORS
OUTSIDE MIRRORS
38)
Driver's side wide angle mirror
The wide angle mirror has two
curvatures on its surface separated by
a region line 1 fig. 13 into outer and
inner regions.
The inner region is a standard convex
mirror whereas the outer region allows
for a wider range of visibility within the
same sweep. This combination allows
for better assurance when making lane
changes.
Objects appearing in the outer region
are actually further away than they are
in the inner region.

Warning light What it means What to do
EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)
SYSTEM WARNING
If the EBD (Electronic Brake-force Distribution)
control unit determines that some
components are operating incorrectly, the
control unit may illuminate the brake system
warning light and the ABS warning light
simultaneously. The problem is likely to be the
electronic brake force distribution system.Stop the vehicle in a safe place immediately
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not drive with both the ABS
warning light and brake warning light
illuminated. Contact a Fiat Dealership to have
the brakes inspected as soon as possible.
Driving when the brake system warning light
and ABS warning light are illuminated
simultaneously is dangerous. When both lights
are illuminated, the rear wheels could lock
more quickly in an emergency stop than under
normal circumstances.
CHARGING SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT
If the warning light illuminates while driving, it
indicates a malfunction of the alternator or of
the charging system. Drive to the side of the
road and park off the right-of-way.Stop the vehicle in a safe place immediately
and contact a Fiat Dealership.
IMPORTANT Do not continue driving when the
charging system warning light is illuminated
because the engine could stop unexpectedly.
ENGINE OIL WARNING LIGHT
This warning light indicates low engine oil
pressure.
IMPORTANT Do not run the engine if the oil
pressure is low. Otherwise, it could result in
extensive engine damage.
IMPORTANT Do not run the engine if the oil
level is low. Otherwise, it could result in
extensive engine damage.
If the light remains illuminated even though the
oil level is normal or after adding oil, stop the
engine immediately and contact a Fiat
Dealership.If the light illuminates or the warning indication
is displayed while driving:
drive to the side of the road and park off
the right-of-way on level ground;
turn off the engine and wait 5 minutes for
the oil to drain back into the sump;
inspect the engine oil level. If it's low, add
the appropriate amount of engine oil while
being careful not to overfill;
start the engine and check the warning
light.

Amber warning lights
Warning light What it means What to do
ABS WARNING LIGHT
If the ABS warning light stays on while you're
driving, the ABS control unit has detected a
system malfunction. If this occurs, your brakes
will function normally as if the vehicle had no
ABS.
NOTE When the engine is jump-started to
charge the battery, uneven rpm occurs and
the ABS warning light may illuminate. If this
occurs, it is the result of the weak battery and
does not indicate an ABS malfunction.
Recharge the battery.
NOTE The brake assist system does not
operate while the ABS warning light is
illuminated.Contact a Fiat Dealership as soon as possible.
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT
If this light illuminates while driving, the vehicle
may have a problem. It is important to note the

The check engine light may illuminate in the
following cases:
the engine's electrical system has a
problem;
